Guest Kudar Posted November 29, 2001 Share Posted November 29, 2001 Oh boy, I just wasted 48 minutes of my life playing on the Zone, things were going reasonably ok, scouted an opponents base, and laid out my plans, I managed to reach tech level 3 before he did, but throughout he had a higher score. I'm no great player, but I figured this might be a decent game, maybe I'd get my ass handed to me, but as I'd asked for it to be recorded I may learn something. So I move some guys up near his base, build Fortress, and shield gen, and some production facilities, then a scout zips past me, and I thought "Sh*t I'm rumbled" I kill his scout and then fire some troops into his base along with some pummels, he sends over some heavy troopers, which my troopers and 3 bounty hunters deal with, I move my pummels towards his fortress and just before they arrive - he quits So we get back to the zone and I see he's ready to host another game, I ask him why he quit the last one and here's his reason . . . . . . . . . I didn't have an army!!!! bleh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Kudar Posted November 30, 2001 Share Posted November 30, 2001 The only times I've ever left a game early is either because the lag makes it unplayable or my internet connection has disconnected (has happened twice in the middle of games that are going well for me ) I'm still ticked an this twit for leaving because I killed his troopers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
duder Posted November 30, 2001 Share Posted November 30, 2001 unfortunately you will have to get used to that on the zone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Kudar Posted November 30, 2001 Share Posted November 30, 2001 and I see now why some games on the Zone say "no quitters" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
duder Posted November 30, 2001 Share Posted November 30, 2001 you're probably better off playing against clan members, as they generally take it more seriously, e.g they dont quit whinge and stick to the rules! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Kudar Posted November 30, 2001 Share Posted November 30, 2001 Originally posted by KoVa TeMBeL he doesnt owe u to stay u know maybe not, but if he can't take even 1 attack then he shouldn't be playing the game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest KoVa TeMBeL Posted November 30, 2001 Share Posted November 30, 2001 u r right, it is irriating, but so is having to kill all vils until the last one. ppl should not quit that fast, but definately should quit at some point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't mind people quitting if they are admitting defeat, he simply bailed out in the middle of the first attack of the game. And as for killing all the villagers, once your down to the last few - get the Bothan Spy Net from the Fortress to let you see where they are Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dvlos Posted November 30, 2001 Share Posted November 30, 2001 Kudar been there done that.. I am sick of it personally. Me and my partner wasted 50 minutes playing had a grand army and right when we were about to start fighting, one player caught site of my forces and quit, the other just quit because his friend quit... but he had a higher score than all of us. I dont even quit laggy games... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

General Nilaar Posted November 30, 2001 Share Posted November 30, 2001 I hate quiters:swear: I fight to the end. Only when there is no way for me to win or even do any serious damage to the enemy do I admit defeat. Basically if all I have left are houses I might consider not making you waste your time killing them all. Then again I might. Might be a good time to go to the bathroom and get a snack. It's petty making them waste time like that, but it sometimes makes me feel better;) In other words, when you fight me you'd better bring some pummelers and cannons with you, otherwise it could be a long time before you get it all.

Guest Cup_A_Jabba Posted December 1, 2001 Share Posted December 1, 2001 I know what you guys mean, I hate quitters too. I neverleave unless I HAVE to quit. Sorry about that again Nilaar . Maybe ppl will come to their senses and stop quitting. Oh well, we can still hope right?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

duder Posted December 1, 2001 Share Posted December 1, 2001 Random match.....a game with standard setts, 1 command centre, 1 scout, 3 workers, and 200 of each resource. All on a random map. I think this is right, although I could be completely wrong Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
